Former Vice President Al Gore lamented today that scientists “will not let us link record-breaking” tornadoes in Oklahoma and elsewhere to climate change because of inadequate record keeping on the twisters.

“But when you put more energy into a system, it gets more energetic,” Gore said at an environmental event in Washington hosted by Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse.

No Al. If that were the case, then all tornadoes would be huge. All hurricanes would be huge. Energy alone does not a storm make. Wind shear, inflow outflow and other factors influence storm building. Al needs to shut the hell up.
